Has anyone got enomalism (www.enomalism.com) installed? Documentation is sparse, but it seems like it has to be installed on dom0, is that correct? If that''s the case, one of the dependencies is the fedora directory server, which requires at least 256MB of RAM. My dom0 and would rather not allocate any more. Is there a way to get this to run under 64MB or at least get it to run in a domU?

Enomalism looks great as a UI for managing Xen, but its back-end design can be summed up with a "Huh?". Now, enomalism with simple authentication and file-based storage of domain configuration... that would be useful. I just posted a question about that to the enomalism "mailing list". Just keep swimming. Itai _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
I saw your post. I think you''re right. I gave up on enomalism and just whipped up a perl script to automate the creation and removal of domU''s (not pretty but it works). Perhaps I can daemonize it, make it stick to a port on the dom0, create a cgi on another server, and create a web interface for it.

The PHP client was very limited compared to the Gtk one, and neither had the detailed system overview and the interactive controls of anomalism. IMO anomalism is the first tool that''s really hitting the spot (at least my spot). Also, it''s written in Python, and that''s a big plus (oh no, a language war!). BTW, Reuven Cohen from the anomalism team just said they''re considering doing a light-weight, non-LDAP version of the web UI.
